The Department of Computer Science & IT was established in 1999. Ruia College was among the first 8 colleges in Mumbai to start Computer Science Programme under the University of Mumbai. Subsequently, we introduced M.Sc. Computer Science and M.Sc. Information Technology in the year 2002 and 2011 respectively. Our Department facilitates academic excellence, innovations in problem-solving, research attitude and holistic development. Our Undergraduate programme in Computer Science focuses on training in a wide spectrum from core areas to emerging technologies by academic and industry experts. Our Post-graduate programmes emphasize on Research and Specialization in current trends of Computing and work experience in the industry through six months  Internship in last semester.   Department has progressed over the years in academics, placements and internships with dedicated efforts of well-qualified and experienced faculties. Our Department is proud to receive grants under the Star College Scheme from DBT, Ministry of Science and Technology, Government of India in 2016. These grants assisted to promote Undergraduate Research and training in current Trends and Technologies.

Message from Head of Department

Department of HOD

I Megha Sawant, Head, Department of Computer Science & IT, Welcome you to the Department of Computer Science & IT. I am proud to be associated with Ruia college for over two decades as student, faculty and now head of the department.  I firmly believe in education that triggers not only the intellectual ability but also motivates mind and soul positively to create, share and apply knowledge. I am fortunate to implement my ideas with the support of institution, colleagues and students.

We are always in the process of tuning the young minds to make them globally competitive. We, educators, believe in the principle “Learn by doing” with more emphasis on the practical implementation of concepts and Project-based learning with applications to real-world problem-solving. We focus on catering to the needs of Millennial learners with enhanced ICT tools for collaborative learning,  blended learning and flipped classrooms. We strive to maximize the potential of each student by maintaining a positive and trusting relationship. We organize various activities like Intercollegiate IT Festival TechStorm, Seminars, Workshops/Training on recent Trends and Technologies, Alumni Talk. All these activities are managed by students that enhance their leadership qualities,  interpersonal and communication skills. We strive to inculcate ethics and morals in students through various social activities. Enthusiastic and passionate faculty team has impacted on an excellent performance of students in placements, academics and certifications. Our students are bringing glory to our department by performing well globally in their endeavours.

To conclude this message, I would like to welcome bright young minds to be part of our team and we together would accomplish our ambitions.
